Dear
Thank you for your email.
All of the ingredients of each Covid-19 vaccine can be found in the Patient Information Leaflets at the following links:
Regulatory approval of Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine for COVID-19 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Regulatory approval of Vaxzevria (previously COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Regulatory approval of COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

Please note none of the vaccines contain graphene oxide. As no medicinal products MHRA has ever licensed contain graphene oxide, we hold no data on the effects of graphene oxide on the human body.
